Wiping the tears from his eyes and rising slowly to his feet, Mablung quietly asked to be shown to the location of today's tragedy. He knew his duty.

Gathering his men and after receiving directions to Cabed-en-Aras, or Cabed Naeramarth, as it was already being referred to as, the company of Sindar set out for the terrible locale.

Upon reaching Cabed Naeramarth, the elves wasted no time. After reverently burying the body of Túrin, setting a large stone on his grave, and burning the carcass of the Worm, they had almost completed their task.

Glancing at the tomb of Túrin, Mablung realized that an unmarked grave hardly befit the larger-than-life adan or his sister. Their final resting place should at least be documented in some way, as a tribute to all the good they had accomplished in life, despite the curse. Taking up the proper tool, he etched a simple epitaph into the rock.
